About this booklet

English

We all know someone "old." It might be a grandparent, a neighbor, or maybe the person behind the counter at the dry cleaners. But what is normal aging? In this booklet there are several very short stories, each followed by a few related questions. Some are multiple-choice, some are true/false (T/F), and some yes/no (Y/N).

Let's see how much you know about aging.
